Corey Lesperance
Registered Psychotherapist, Registered Psychotherapist (Qualifying); RP(Q)
Some clients seek help in living with diagnoses or symptoms of dissociative disorders, that distract them from their life and can be disorienting or even frightening. I help them develop tools to first process this fear and apprehension, and then explore what causes this to happen, and how we can work on increasing their control, or reducing their anxiety.

Ps. I Love You Psychotherapy | M. Caracciolo Professional Corporation
Registered Psychotherapist, HBEd, MA (Hons.), Registered Psychotherapist (Qualifying), C-DBT
Who does not want to escape reality at times? Dissociative disorders are mental disorders that involve experiencing a disconnection and lack of continuity between thoughts, memories, surroundings, actions and identity. People with dissociative disorders escape reality in unhealthy and involuntary ways as a means to deal with intrusive and often traumatic thoughts and memories.

Dissociation
Ariana N. Zeppieri-Makhan
Registered Psychotherapist, MA, RP
Through my work with trauma survivors, I have come to work with the dissociative disorders. With a constant eye to safety and grounding, I have guided clients through reflective and experiential exercises to explore their understanding of their experiences and ways in which they may cope or overcome their perceptual challenges.
Since my undergraduate degree, I have been motivated to work with individuals experiencing dissociative disorders. I read a number of first-person accounts, as well as articles, and watched countless interviews with afflicted individuals, expert professionals, and close others in the early days of this pursuit. I continue to read what I can and gain insight from those afflicted, where possible.

Counsellor/Therapist, Tracey Nguyen, Holistic Advanced Nurse Psychotherapist RN, MN
Transformative Dissociative Disorder Therapy: Reconnect with Your True Self in Reality
Hi, I'm Tracey, and I’m here to guide you on a gentle, healing journey if you’re struggling with dissociation—a coping mechanism that may have helped you survive a painful childhood or overwhelming reality. If you’re a creative, sensitive soul who’s felt like you’re floating above it all to escape emotional, physical, or sexual violations, I see you. Those experiences, often rooted in early life, can leave you feeling disconnected from yourself. My dissociative disorder therapy practice offers a safe, compassionate space to come back home to your body and heart.
A Trauma-Informed Path to Reintegration
Dissociation often begins as a way to protect oneself from unsafe or repeated boundary violations. In our work together, we’ll focus on healing those core wounds, helping you feel safe enough to stay present in your body. We’ll move slowly, creating a shared, nurturing space where you can reconnect with your sensations and emotions without fear. I’ll guide you in addressing the deeper relationship within yourself, exploring what keeps you running from your truth, so you can gently reintegrate reality and find peace.
My approach is trauma-informed, intuitive, and tailored to your unique story. We’ll work on rebuilding your sense of safety, setting healthy boundaries, and honouring your sensitivity as a strength. As you begin to feel secure in your body, dissociation naturally starts to heal, allowing you to live more fully in the present, connected to your authentic self.
Start Your Healing Journey Today
You don’t have to stay disconnected or carry this alone. If you’re ready to heal from dissociation, reconnect with your body, and embrace your true self, I’m here to support you with warmth and care. Let’s create a safe space to rediscover your strength and wholeness. Book a consultation with me today, and let’s take that first step together.

Approaches like art therapy and sensorimotor therapy gently engage both body and mind, helping individuals safely reconnect with their sensations and emotions, process experiences, and build a stronger sense of presence, integration, and self-awareness.

Dissociation
Sierra Gaudreault
Registered Psychotherapist, RP
Dissociation is a natural and protective response when our nervous system is dysregulated. However, sometimes dissociation can create challenges when we or others are unsure what's happening or how to respond to it in helpful ways. I use a nonjudgemental and dissociation-affirming approach to help you understand your dissociation, honour the ways your body has kept and continues to keep you safe, and build a grounding toolkit that actually works for you. I also offer trauma therapy to help you heal from experiences that may be keeping you trapped in this survival response.

Dissociation
Hiba Khatkhat @ Under The Oaks Self Care Center
Registered Psychotherapist, MA CMHC, RP
Dissociation is the mind's great ability to protect you and help you get through extreme overwhelm and hardship. We all have the ability to do it. It's on a continuum. When it's not seen as a disorder, it shows up as numbing or being on auto-pilot (like when you forget to take your exit driving and you say "my mind was somewhere else"). When it's a disorder, it can have tremendous impacts on many areas in your life. Focusing on integration and stabilization becomes key. We combine trauma informed care with the structural dissociation theory of personality, along with practices informed by internal family systems to deliver a tailored approach, in addition to trauma therapy that targets the root causes.
